'heated' tommy works as a staffer for josh hawley and is a christian nationalist this is how the contemporary far right operate. they ask a bad faith question in a public forum and then their billionaire owned legacy media outlets reframe the response given in the most disingenuous way imaginable

Simple answer - the majority right wing media not only let's him get away with it but continues to promote him... while many in Labour - for the most part - arw too timid to call him and his disgrace of a party out.

i give up honestly. labour have turned the uk in to a russia style oligarchy. under sunak we were still, basically, a liberal democracy. a very corrupt and broken liberal democracy but labour have blown all the doors off and we're now we're just an oligarchy.

As two major government reviews into "welfare" are set to finally report back, the right wing press are not even hiding their attempts to shape the reforms. The Left needs to get ready.

I'm a bit confused you don't know what "the left" is. I hope it goes without saying that the Labour Party as a bloc is not "the left", just like "the right" aren't defined by the Tories. In fact, much of the left is often defined by being on the outside of the Labour Party!

im a bit confused you don't know what the left is if you think it involves the labour party in any way whatsoever.

Bluesky has become bizarre as a left wing journalist. Messages from people who say the Tories have done less damage to the country than this Labour government. Arguing the Left as a movement is defined by the Labour Party. It's like a flood of Russian bots come to irritate and confuse.

ppl will complain about games being £69.99, and im one of the complainers, but when you realise second hand games were selling for £44.99 thirty years ago i mean... yeah. maybe games nowadays aren't quite as expensive as we think they are.

like i guess @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social and @lucympowell.bsky.social just don't care about polling data. i get that it's a hard needle for labour to thread. but smearing and attacking the greens in this way is jus going to lose them voters and alienate the ppl they're allegedly trying to get back.

New polling conducted in early June 2025 reveals that a majority of Britons oppose Israel's military campaign in Gaza (55%), with a large proportion of those opponents saying Israel's actions amount to genocide.

At the same time, there is strong public backing for the UK to enforce the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he were to visit the UK, underscoring growing public pressure for legal accountability and a decisive government response.

The survey, commissioned by the NGO Action For Humanity in collaboration with the International Centre for Justice for Palestinians, was conducted by YouGov and shows the following:

55% of the public oppose Israel's military campaign in Gaza, with only 15% supporting.

Of those who polled as opposing the campaign, a striking 82% believe it amounts to genocide.

This translates to 45% of the total population who view Israel's actions as genocidal.

Among Labour voters, the number is even higher: 59% believe genocide is taking place.

andy burnham snd @lucympowell.bsky.social have ruled out a coalition with greens. yet another starmer era policy. it’s wild to me that they’re trying tempt green voters back to labour by… insulting green voters. there’s been a distinct lack of coherence to labour since they came to power

aye. reminder: the entire british government is still on x. they still think x is a barometer of public opinion.

Perhaps the most telling sign that staying on X has made you worse than you used to be is that, just a few years ago, if I asked you: "Would you use a product from a company owned entirely by a man who sold child sexual abuse material?", you would have said no. You're no longer that person. I'm sorry to see it.

idk. i think the bbc has always been pretty bad tbh. i think in the 80s bbc news was invaded by lesbian activists.

Can you imagine if the BBC had been so eager to platform bigotry in the years before 2016 or 2021 or so? Especially in their Progressive Golden Age?

been trying to fit why i think ‘ppl will vote labour to keep reform out’ strategy is doomed to fail in to a single post they don’t understand that the left, and minorities, hate them more than we hate farage. we fear them more than we fear farage anyway had to use a note instead

i don't spend any time thinking about nigel farage. i don't have strong feelings about that man at all. he's a repugnant bigot and a chancer but... so is andy burnham, so is kemi badenoch.

the ppl who keep me awake at night are ppl like peter. the john harris', the gaby hinsliffs, the hadley freemans, the stephen bushs, the james balls, the jk rowlings, the suzanne moores, the graham linehans, the janes fucking o'briens.

these ppl think being absurdly racist and xenophobic is just playing politics, they think mass murdering transgender ppl is grown-up politics, and they think treating disabled ppl as useless eaters is strong economics.

im not worried about farage. i *nothing* farage.

i lie awake at night worried about the horrors the sensible, reasonable, grownups are going to rationalise next.

'why dont the working class like centrists?' centrists:

EssJay @marineresteve.bsky.social

I thought most working class folks listen to right wing bollox and vote for either old Etonians or the occasional Kunt from Dulwich.

Quite why they think rich posh twats will help them through life is one of those weird things about the poorly educated.
